Tired but good...

Just back from another trip to Mpls for my grad class (last one for this semester!). I had a productive trip as I got to meet with my advisor and a couple potential committee members as well. I am still behind on course work and am facing some looming administrative deadlines but all things considered everything is looking pretty manageable for my program. Planning to teach my Honors course at BSU tonight (with Pat and Marsha thankfully) and am looking forward to getting back in the classroom after missing a couple weeks...somehow teaching always recharges my system. I am feeling a little tired just now but got a great night of sleep last night and am done with the Prednisone for this round so hopefully will I have a little more energy each day for the next week or so. Also, I am starting to feel OK about my new found baldness (I did get the shave on Monday). I went out for lunch yesterday afternoon and decided to be bold and take my hat off...nobody even noticed and in fact there were several other shaved heads in the restaurant. Apparently my timing is good and this look is fashionable as well as inevitable. /dps
